    Why didn't Bullard get into the last game? We could have used his 3 point shots! I'm a little concerned.

    Lately Bullard has been getting more slaughtered than usual on defense so his playing time has decreased. That said, Walt and Shandon were 1 of 15, could it have hurt to have Bullard in there?

    I agree SilentJ, Bull couldn't have hurt us. But there is no way I'd put Langhi in the 4th quarter...he looks nervous just playing during garbage minutes. We need to build up his confidene in the 1st and 2nd quarter of some of these games and eventually get him some time in the 4th.

    Walt missed enough shots in the first half that Langhi should have been in instead. I saw Langhi in the Rocky Mountain Review and I really thought he was going to do something this year. I'm very disappointed in his playing time so far.

    Langhi is pretty good for a young guy, but I agree that I wouldn't want him in the 4th quarter of a close game. I would much rather see Bull in late in a game.

    A player's performance in a summer league against rookies and lower level free agents is in no way a reflection of what he can do during the regular season.

    You can say that again. In the game against the rockets, Tractor Traylor looked like a superstar.
